Why for Atl?
AI for a #1 and 3 young players is a little steep but they keep the core of Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Zaza, and Shelden Williams as a solid set of starters with AI. Maybe the first round pick is too much, and a #2 pick is OK instead.

Why for Philly?
The TE lets them reduce salary and rebuild with young talent and draft picks.

The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!)

Re: Indiana-Atlanta-Philadelphi, Al & AI

I wouldn't mind the trade but, it seems clear to me Philly wants to get something respectable for Iverson. They have even been talking about, holding out letting Iverson even start the season in Philly because they aren't satisfied with any of the offers.

The weakness might be Atlanta perceiving that it is giving up too much.

Al wants to go to Indy and AI likes Atlanta-- this seems a natural.
